If I'm not mistaken I heard the guy narrating say that other players will be able to get involved and attack the castle. That's a definite buy for me. All in all it looks really interesting and hopefully more information is released in the future.

Even more impressive is the fact that it's built in the unity game engine. There have been some neat projects to come out of it recently.

Definitely. There's also a 3D Lunar Lander sort-of-reboot which looks very very very interesting, I've been fighting the temptation to buy it over the holidays and I have a feeling I might be giving up soon.

Yeah, IT IS BROKEN ATM! It is taking the early access thing seriously. You can play and build up a castle but the AI has issues and not everything is working. If you want a stable game, wait for the full release. It could be a while.

Yeah, popped into the Steam forum just now and saw much the same. Hope they pull it together.

Oh I'm sure they will. They blew through their target on kickstart, they wanted 80k and got 800k, so they wanted to make a bigger game, but that takes longer so this early access is just them showing something because of pressure from some backers to have more progress.

It has come on a long way, and they listen to the players, the UI has changed a few times to make it better for example.

Getting more than they asked for (and they didn't ask for a small amount as-it-was) may not be a good thing - they'd not the first people to spiral-off and never finish the bloody thing (HELLO DESKTOP DUNGEONS TEAM(*))

My first reaction was 'they're rather unpleasant looking Minifig ripoffs - something less unnerving would be nice" but I like that they have 'game' here and not just 'blocks'.

Unity is usually a put-off for me - you CAN make solid games in it but you can also make flaky crap which LOOKS like a solid game - as a coder, it's approach to coding leaves me shaking my head and saying "it's not 1990 for fucks sake - where's the reuse!?"

(*) I've griped enough on here about DD that someone posted about me in their forums - so HELLO!!!!!!
